Two more subpoenas sought in Sean Dunne bankruptcy case

April 30, 2013 by namawinelake

News this evening from Connecticut that the bankruptcy trustee managing Sean Dunne’s bankruptcy has sought two new subpoenas compelling a US bank and a surveyor to submit to questioning in relation to Sean’s affairs.

The bankruptcy trustee, Richard Coan and his law firm, Coan, Lewendon, Gulliver and Miltenberger have asked the court to grant them a so-called Rule 2004 Examination which, if granted, will allow them to question two parties, who they claim, have information relevant to the assets of Sean and/or transfers and/or other information.

The two separate parties are Andy Smyth – pictured above – a surveyor with the New York firm, Bruce Shaw and secondly, a bank, People’s United Bank in Connecticut. The subpoena applications are here and here. The judge has not yet approved them but he did approve a subpoena application which compels companies in the Credit Suisse group to submit to questioning.

Neither People’s United Bank nor Andy Smyth are shown as creditors on Sean’s filings.

UPDATE: 1st May, 2013. Bruce Shaw, the Irish headquartered quantity surveying and property services firm is on Sean’s creditors list. Sean who is himself a quantity surveyor, has a long history with Bruce Shaw. It is understood he went to college with Michael Scollard and Derry Scully who worked at Bruce Shaw. In fact Michael Scollard left Bruce Shaw to work as project manager on Sean’s ultimately-disastrous Ballsbridge development – “Knightsbridge in D2”.  Bruce Shaw was very active in the boom, being Ireland’s largest quantity surveying firm and was particularly active in the development of Dublin’s docklands.

    US firm Bruce Shaw – any chance that they are connected to the Irish firm of the same name?

      @Howya, there is an update above on the Bruce Shaw aspect. Of course, it is the Irish headquartered Bruce Shaw, but it is an employee in the New York office who is the subject of the subpoena application. The individual, Andy Smyth, who works from the NY office appears to be British.
